My boss sends me documents with mark up view. I need to save them so
this view is gone for good and can't figure out how. I save them, and
then when I open them, the dang mark up is still there. I need to
send these docs to other people. Help!

Use the Accept All button on the reviewing toolbar. So far, all you've been
doing is hiding the changes, and Word is set to let you know they're there.
